An explosion proof electronics enclosure (200), is provided having a first compartment (206) and a second compartment (207) defined by a body (205). A septum (208) is between the first compartment (206) and the second compartment (207). A first aperture (209) in the septum (208) connects the first compartment (206) and the second compartment (207). A cavity (225) communicates with the first aperture (209), wherein the cavity (225) comprises an undercut taper (226). A potting (230) in the cavity (225) conforms to the cavity (225) shape, and forms a substantially explosion-proof interface between the first compartment (206) and the second compartment (207).
